Welcome to my homepage!

My name is Stefan Salewski, I am a Physicist (PhD) and currently living in my native city Stade in Germany near the big river Elbe.

After my high school graduation (Abitur) at Athenaeum-Stade and my military duty (Wehrdienst) in Unna (Germany) and Rotenburg (Wümme) (Germany) I studied Physics, Mathematics and Computer Sciences at the University of Hamburg (Germany).

When I did my Diploma-Thesis at the Institute of Laser-Physics of Hamburg University I built a Fourier-Spectrometer for time-resolved investigation of laser spectra. The thesis is available in PDF and PostScript format, but only in German language, see

While working for my PhD degree at the same institute I was involved in the development of Fiber-Lasers emitting at different colors in the visible spectral range. More information about fiber lasers and the results of my research activities can be found in my PhD-Thesis (Dissertation), see

Currently my activities include the development of electronic devices, in particular in the area of data acquisition. Selected parts of these work are presented on my Internet pages, i.e. a simple USB experimentation board together with my own USB-firmware. Or the schematics and the PCB board layout for a PC based Digital Storage Oscilloscope (DSO), which development is nearly finished now. More about these and other projects can be found in the navigation area at the left.
